canadians claim to be proud, but the actions of the nation do not reflect this.

Meh.
It's happening everywhere, in every country, on different scales.
This is what happens when a society cares more about Kim Kardashian and Kanye West instead of politics or the actions of their government.

you can privatize everything, having the brightest and best Canadians owning everything.
Canada is becoming less competitive for whatever reason (there are many), plenty of Asian and Middle Eastern (and European, American, etc) companies are ready to step in and take advantage.

Cant wait for the day when Canuck players get isis sponsor badges on their jerseys.
In a province of Australia, a ZioAmerican Commonwealth nation like Canada, they started implementing a law where welfare and child benefits are cut off for families in which their children arent vaccinated.
This country is turning to shit.

Its simplistic, and completely overlooks the serious socioeconomic issues facing society today.
